Objective: To analyze the correlation between ABO blood group compatibility and the risk of early complications after liver transplantation, and to identify risk factors for clinical intervention. Methods: Clinical data of 404 liver transplant recipients and donors were collected. Based on donor-recipient ABO matching, patients were divided into three groups: ABO-Identical (ABO-Id, n=313), ABO-compatible (ABO-c, n=68), ABO-incompatible (ABO-i, n=23). Clinical data, early complications, and associated risk factors were compared. Results: Compared with the ABO-Id, ABO-c and ABO-i recipients were younger, had a higher proportion of primary biliary atresia, and more frequently received living-donor transplantation from relatives (P<0.05). Overall complication rates were: ABO-c 47.1% (32/68), ABO-i 43.5% (10/23), ABO-Id 39.3% (123/313), with no significant intergroup difference (P>0.05). Infection was the most common complication [ABO-c 30.9% (21/68), ABO-i 21.7% (5/23), ABO-Id 17.9% (56/313)]. No significant differences were found in infection, vascular/biliary or acute kidney injury/renal failure among the three groups (P>0.05). However, ABO-c group had significantly higher rates of ascites/abscess (20.6% vs 8.9%, P<0.05) and pleural effusion (14.7% vs 7.0%, P<0.05) than ABO-Id group. There was no significant difference in the incidence of complications and ABO blood group between ABO non-Identical (ABO-c and ABO-i) and Identical groups. Logistic regression analysis showed that the risk of ascites/abscess in ABO non-Identical was higher than that in ABO-Id liver transplantation (P<0.05), and the risk of ascites/abscess after ABO-c liver transplantation was 2.246 times higher than that of ABO-Id liver transplantation. The primary biliary atresia were a risk factor for postoperative ascites/abscess. Conclusion: Enhanced postoperative management is critical for ABO-nonidentical (especially ABO-compatible) recipients, and those with biliary atresia to reduce complication risks.

Objective To investigate the expression of regional cerebral oxygen saturation(rSO2)in preterm infants with brain injury(BIPI)and its relationship with amplitude-integrated electroencephalogram(aEEG)parameters and neurodevelopment.Methods Retrospectively,116 cases of BIPI(Bilateral Intra-ventricular Perforation)born in the hospital between February 2022 and February 2023 were selected as the study subjects.According to the Expert Consensus on the Diagnosis and Prevention of Premature Infant Brain Injury,these cases were categorized into mild,moderate,and severe groups,with 59,35,and 22 cases,respectively.The study compared the general characteristics of premature infants with different brain injury levels.Regression analysis was conducted to identify the factors affecting brain injury in premature infants,and correlation analyses were performed on aEEG scores,rSO2,and GMS scores.ROC curve analysis was used to evaluate the value of combining brain oxygen saturation monitoring with aEEG in predicting abnormal whole-body motor quality assessment.Results On the 3rd and 7th days after birth,severe brain-injured premature infants had significantly lower rSO2 and aEEG scores compared to those with mild and moderate brain injuries(P<0.05).At 7 days,these infants also had lower scores for graph continuity,sleep-wake cycles,lower boundary amplitude,bandwidth,total score,rSO2,gestational age,and birth weight,and a higher proportion of abnormal developmental outcomes(PR+CS)(P<0.05).Multivariate logistic regression analysis revealed that the 3-day aEEG total score(OR=0.448,95％CI:0.094～0.890),7-day aEEG total score(OR=0.384,95％CI:0.058～0.726),3-day rSO2(OR=0.574,95％CI:0.398～0.750),and 7-day rSO2(OR=0.431,95％CI:0.115～0.777)were all protective factors for brain injury in premature infants,P<0.05.Correlation analysis showed that brain oxygen saturation was negatively correlated with aEEG scores and overall motor quality.The prediction value for abnormal overall motor quality using 7-day rSO2,aEEG,and the combination of 7-day rSO2 and 7-day aEEG scores was as follows:the positive predictive value for rSO2 was 86.46％,the negative predictive value was 96.85％,the sensitivity was 92.31％,the specificity was 92.21％,and the cut-off value was 0.845;The positive predictive value(PPV)of aEEG was 78.26％,the negative predictive value(NPV)was 96.86％,the sensitivity was 89.74％,and the specificity was 92.21％,with a cut-off value of 0.820.The positive predictive value(PPV)of 7-day rSO2 combined with 7-day aEEG score was 89.04％,the NPV was 96.88％,the sensitivity was 94.90％,and the specificity was 93.51％,with a cut-off value of 0.884,P<0.05.ROC curve analysis showed that the AUC of 7-day rSO2+7-day aEEG score was 0.895,De-long test P<0.005,indicating high predictive value for overall exercise quality.Conclusion Combined with rSO2 and EEG,the prediction of overall motor quality is better,which may have clinical value for excluding high-risk children.

Objective To investigate the epidemiological characteristics and influencing factors of Femoral Artery Compression-Related Skin Complications Around the Puncture Site(FACR-SCAPS)in patients with primary hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC)undergoing transarterial chemoembolization(TACE).Methods A multicenter cross-sectional study was conducted using convenience sampling.A total of 1 573 HCC patients who underwent TACE between April 2023 and October 2024 were recruited from interventional radiology departments,oncology units,and specialized centers across 10 hospitals in Beijing,Tianjin,Shandong,Hebei,Qinghai,and Inner Mongolia.Descriptive statistics,univariate analysis,and multivariate logistic regression were used to explore the epidemiological characteristics and influencing factors of FACR-SCAPS in this population.Results Among the 1 573 primary HCC patients undergoing TACE interventional therapy,FACR-SCAPS occurred in 28.99％(456/1 573),with a total of 476 complication instances recorded(30.26 per 100 patients).Patients with a single complication accounted for 96.93％,whereas those with multiple complications constituted 3.07％.The most prevalent types of complications were skin erythema,skin ecchymosis,and hard lumps formation,collectively accounting for 96.49％of all complications.Hematoma,blisters,and rupture complications collectively accounted for only 4.61％.Logistic regression analysis revealed that peak diastolic blood pressure during compression(OR=1.024,95％CI:1.013-1.035,P＜0.001),use of rotary compression hemostasis devices(OR=3.220,95％CI:2.120-4.891,P＜0.001),elevated PT-INR(OR=19.630,95％CI:6.039-63.810,P＜0.001),and anticoagulant use within the last three months(OR=1.909,95％CI:1.064-3.427,P=0.030)were significant influencing factors associated with FACR-SCAPS post-TACE.Conclusion FACR-SCAPS is commonly seen among primary HCC patients after TACE,its risk factors include peak diastolic blood pressure during compression,use of rotary compression devices,elevated PT-INR,and recent anticoagulant use.

Objective:To investigate the current status of nursing service quality from patients' perspectives and analyze its influencing factors.Methods:A convenience sampling method was used to select 615 adult inpatients who met the inclusion and exclusion criteria from two tertiary general hospitals and one secondary general hospital between April and June 2024. Patients from 22 clinical departments, including internal medicine, surgery, gynecology, otorhinolaryngology, traditional Chinese medicine, and rehabilitation, were surveyed using a demographic questionnaire and the nursing service quality evaluation scale from patients' perspective.Results:The overall nursing service quality score from patients' perspective was (106.18±12.80) points, with a standardized score of (84.94±10.24) points. Among the four modules, the highest to lowest scores were: emotional and psychological support, professional and technical competence, information and communication, and comfort and convenience, with standardized scores of (87.53±10.83), (87.23±9.87), (84.97±11.83), and (80.74±12.57), respectively. The top three ranked dimensions were respect, professionalism, and safety, while the lowest three were guidance, comfort, and convenience. Multiple linear regression analysis showed that daytime nurse-to-patient ratio, night-shift nurse-to-patient ratio, patients' education level, and patient age were significant influencing factors of nursing service quality from patients' perspectives ( P<0.05) . Conclusions:Nursing service quality from patients' perspectives was at a good level. Department-level factors influencing nursing service quality were primarily nurse-to-patient ratios, while patient-level factors included age and education level.

Objective:To explore the structural characteristics of intestinal microflora in children with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease（NAFLD）and the relationship between intestinal microflora and the occurrence as well as development of NAFLD in children.Methods:Fifteen children with NAFLD diagnosed at the First People's Hospital of Yunnan Province from January 2022 to December 2022 were selected as subjects，and 15 healthy children who received routine physical examinations at the outpatient clinic during the same period were randomly selected as healthy control group.The height，weight，waist circumference，blood pressure，blood biochemistry of all children were collected.At the same time，the fresh fecal samples of all children were collected，and the biological information of intestinal flora was analyzed by 16S rRNA sequencing.Results:In the NAFLD group，there were eight males and seven females，with an average age of（11.13±1.77）years.In healthy control group，there were seven males and eight females，with an average age of（9.73±2.25）years.There were no significant differences in sex，age，blood pressure between two groups.Compared with the healthy control group，the levels of body mass index，waist circumference，waist-to-height ratio，alanine aminotransferase，aspartate transaminase，gamma-glutamyl transpeptidase，total bilirubin，direct bilirubin，unconjugated bilirubin，low density lipoprotein cholesterol，uric acid and serum insulin significantly increased and high density lipoprotein cholesterol significantly decreased in NAFLD group（ P<0.05）.The results of species diversity analysis showed that chaol index and observed-species index in NAFLD group were significantly higher than those in healthy control group（ P<0.05）.Species diversity analysis showed that the species with increased abundance in NAFLD group included：Proteobacteria，Gammaproteobacteria，Enterobacteriaceae，Klebsiella，Escherichia-Shigella，Escherichia-Shigella-unclassified.Differential species with increased abundance in the healthy control group included：Bifidobacterium species，Bifidobacterium，Bifidobacteriaceae，Bifidobacteriales，Actinobacteria，Actinobacteriota，Bacteroidia，Bacteroidales，Streptococcus-thermophilus. Conclusion:There are metabolic abnormalities and obvious changes in the structure of intestinal flora in children with NAFLD.Exogenous supplementation of Bifidobacterium，Streptococcus thermophilus and Bacteroides may prevent the occurrence of NAFLD，delay the progression of disease and improve fat deposition in the liver.

Objective:To explore the significance of laparoscopic virtual reality simulation training by analyzing the learning curve of laparoscopic cholecystectomy among young general surgeons who had participated in laparoscopic skills training at our hospital.Methods:Fifty young surgeons were divided into two groups, with the intervention group participating in virtual reality simulation training and the control group participating in traditional laparoscopic clinical training. After completion of the training, 30 laparoscopic cholecystectomies were performed under the supervision of highly qualified surgeons with extensive laparoscopic experience. CUSUM analysis was applied to plot the trainees' surgical learning curve based on the completion rate, surgical score and operative time. " x" is the number of surgical cases and " k" is the slope. The value of x when k=0 was calculated and the surgical learning curves and intraoperative scores of the 2 groups of trainees were compared. SPSS 23.00 was performed for t-test and Chi-square test. Results:The intervention and control groups crossed the surgical learning curve at x=19.24±0.39 and x=21.72±0.73 respectively, with significant differences ( P<0.01); the intervention and control groups scored (10.82±2.73) and (9.71±2.69) for gallbladder exposure ( t=4.61, P<0.01), (12.59±3.12) and (8.87±2.99) for gallbladder dissection triangle ( t=6.21, P<0.01), and (10.69±3.38) and (8.80±3.55) for gallbladder dissection ( t=3.10, P<0.01). Conclusions:Virtual reality simulation training can facilitate the translation of basic laparoscopic training skills into clinical skills and can promote the growth of young general surgeons.

Objective To study the levels of serum Periostin and interleukin(I1-)-18 in preterm infants with bronchopulmonary dysplasia(BPD),and to analyze their correlation with the severity of the disease and their predictive value for BPD.Methods A total of 62 preterm infants with BPD diagnosed and treated in the hospital from January 2019 to January 2022 were retrospectively selected as the BPD group,and 80 preterm in-fants without BPD during the same period were selected as the non-BPD group.According to the severity of BPD,the infants with BPD were divided into mild subgroup(22 cases),moderate subgroup(24 cases)and se-vere subgroup(16 cases).The serum levels of Periostin and IL-18 were detected by enzyme-linked immu-nosorbent assay.Pearson correlation analysis was used to analyze the correlation between the clinical parameters.Multivariate Logistic regression was used to analyze the influencing factors of BPD,and receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve was used to analyze the predictive value of each indicator for BPD.Results Compared with the non-BPD group,the BPD group had a significantly higher proportion of infants with pulmonary surfactant(PS)use,neonatal respiratory distress syndrome,apnea,patent ductus arteriosus,and serum levels of Periostin and IL-18,as well as a significantly longer duration of mechanical ventilation,noninvasive respiratory support,and length of hospital stay.The lung function parameters[tidal volume per kilogram(VT/kg),ratio of time to peak tidal expiratory flow to time(TPTEF/TE),ratio of volume to peak tidal expiratory flow to volume(VPEF/VE),expiratory flow at 50％tidal volume(50％TEF),expiratory flow at 75％tidal volume(75％TEF)]and 1,5 min Apgar score of BPD group were lower than that of non-BPD group,and the differences were statistically significant(P＜0.05).The serum levels of Periostin and IL-18 in mild subgroup,moderate subgroup and severe subgroup were increased in turn.The levels of serum Periostin and IL-18 were negatively correlated with pulmonary function indexes(VT/kg,50％TEF,75％TEF,TPTEF/TE,VPEF/VE,P＜0.05).Serum Periostin,IL-18 and neonatal respiratory distress syndrome were independent risk factors for BPD(P＜0.05),and PS was a protective factor(P＜0.05).Serum Periostin,IL-18 and neonatal respiratory distress syndrome were independent risk factors for the severity of BPD(P＜0.05).The area under the curve(95％CI)of serum Periostin and IL-18 alone and in combination for predicting BPD were 0.841(0.814-0.899),0.863(0.820-0.897),0.922(0.878-0.949),respectively.The sensitivity and specificity of combined prediction were 0.902 and 0.825,respectively.The area under the curve of the combination of the two indica-tors for predicting BPD was greater than that of each index alone,and the difference was statistically signifi-cant(Z=5.357,4.894,P＜0.001).Conclusion The levels of serum Periostin and IL-18 are increased in in-fants with BPD,which are related to the severity of BPD and lung function.The combination of serum Perios-tin and IL-18 has a high predictive value for BPD.

Objective:To evaluate the distribution characteristics of choroidal vascularity index (CVI) in macula among normal children using swept-source optical coherence tomography (SS-OCT), and to investigate the influencing factors.Methods:A cross-sectional study was conducted.Sixty-three children aged 6 to 12 years were enrolled in The First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University from May 2021 to November 2021.Spherical equivalent refraction, axial length (AL) and other ocular biological parameters were measured.Macula-centered CVI and choroidal thickness (ChT) were measured by SS-OCT angiography.According to the ETDRS partition, the obtained image was divided into macular central fovea (0-1 mm diameter), inner ring (1-3 mm diameter) and outer ring (3-6 mm diameter) zones.Data from the right eye were selected for statistical analysis.CVI in the three rings and four zones (superior, temporal, inferior and nasal zones) of the inner and outer rings were compared.Univariate and multiple linear regression analyses were used to analyze the correlation between CVI and sex, AL, anterior chamber depth (ACD), ChT and pupil diameter.This study adhered to the Declaration of Helsinki.The study protocol was approved by the Ethics Committee of The First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University (No.2021-KY-0399-003). Written informed consent was obtained from each guardian.Results:The average CVI in the macular central fovea, inner ring and outer ring were 0.35±0.12, 0.32±0.10 and 0.27±0.08, respectively, with a significant difference ( F=10.96, P<0.001), and significant differences in CVI were found in pairwise comparisons of the three ring zones (all at P<0.05). Significant differences in CVI were found among superior, temporal, inferior and nasal zones in inner and outer rings ( Fring=11.60, P=0.001; Fzone=12.02, P<0.05). The CVI was smaller in superior and nasal zones in inner ring than in temporal zone, greater in superior, temporal and inferior zones in outer ring than in nasal zone, smaller in superior zone of outer ring than that of the inner ring, and the differences were statistically significant (all at P<0.001). The single factor linear regression analysis showed that ChT in the fovea, inner ring and outer ring were the influencing factors of CVI in the three ring zones (all at β=0.001, P<0.001). Pupil diameter ( β=0.034, P=0.038; β=0.040, P=0.003; β=0.024, P=0.011) and ACD ( β=0.097, P=0.034; β=0.097, P=0.013; β=0.061, P=0.032) were the influencing factors of CVI in fovea, inner ring and outer ring.After multiple linear regression analysis, the regression equations were established as follows: CVI in the macular fovea=0.001×ChT in the macular fovea + 0.001×ChT in the inner ring+ 0.001×ChT in the outer ring-0.301 ( R2=0.514, F=6.875, P<0.001); CVI in the inner ring=0.001×ChT in the macular fovea+ 0.001×ChT in the inner ring+ 0.001×ChT in the outer ring+ 0.088×AL-0.307 ( R2=0.603, F=9.870, P<0.001); CVI in the outer ring=0.001×ChT in the macular fovea+ 0.001×ChT in the inner ring+ 0.001×ChT in the outer ring-0.135 ( R2=0.601, F=9.781, P<0.001). Conclusions:In children aged 6-12 years old, the CVI is higher in the macular central fovea than in inner and outer rings, and the CVI in nasal zone is the smallest in both inner and outer rings.The thicker the ChT, the higher the CVI in all zones in the macular area; the deeper the anterior chamber, the higher the CVI in the inner ring.
